Yes, its completely went wrong. There is difference b/w subneting and
superneting and thus routing and broadcasting. Make sure you add routing of
host 192.168.10.10 in your Linux 192.168.4.175/24.
I'm not sure but simplest command could be like
route add -host 192.168.10.10 gw 192.168.4.174
Hope this helps,
